COTTON PRICES
NEW YORK. Aug 24.—Steady cables
and absence of rain in Texas caused the
cotton market to open unchanged to 6
points higher today. The market was
quiet. During the first 15 minutes of trad
ing was almost entirely local and re
vealed little tendency either way.
After the call the market was dull and
featureless and prices in most active posi
tions lost 7 to 9 points. Later, however,
the weather map indicated some disturb
ance which caused some hesitancy among
traders to sell and prices showed a tend
ency to rally a few points.
The market became dull and less at
tractive during the late trading of the
short session. Pell interests and other in
terests were said to be free sellers
throughout the day. The buying was of
a general character and prices were firm
ly maintained around last night's closing
figures. At the close the market w’as
steady with October contracts 11.23,
against 11.19 a week ago. while December
was 11.82, against 11.26. The entire list
closed with irregularity in prices, ranging
from unchanged to 1 point lower to 1
point above the final quotations of Fri
day.

Corn 79
Oats 33
CHICAGO, Aug. 24.—Wheat was %@%o
higher early today on the strength in tha
markets of the old world which was
brought about by continued wet weather
and unfavorable crop conditions in Russia
and England. Shorts were buyers in this
market. The smaller supply of ears in
the United State* will, it is feared, cur
tail the movement of new wheat.
Wheat closed with gains of %c to %o
over the close of yesterday and about %c
above the lowest levels reached. Cash
trade was small, with sales of only 50.-
000 bushels. Export bids were generally
out of line. Sentiment xvas still bearish.
Corn was %c lower to %c and %c high
er and the feeling firm. Cash sales grads
were 165,000 bushels for Eastern ship
ment.
Oats were %c higher for September,
while December was %c lower, with May
unchanged.
Hog products were fractionally better
all around.
